Carlyle's House was the home acquired by the historian and philosopher Thomas Carlyle and his wife Jane Welsh Carlyle, after having lived at Craigenputtock in Dumfriesshire, Scotland.
She was a prominent woman of letters, for nearly half a century. The building dates from 1708 and is at No. 24 Cheyne Row, which is one of London's best preserved early eighteenth- century streets. The house is now owned by the National Trust.
